Please help me asap. It is important. How does the dengue virus cause the symptoms? I know the symptoms are hemorrhaging, aches on the joints, etc, but I wish to know how does virus cause all these. Is it the proteins that the virus produces, or some other things that the virus did?

This kind of Arbovirus has a hemaglutinogenic characteristic, so this virus can do a hemaglutination. How to inactivate it? well, this virus can be inactivated with certain conditions such as: acidic environment, high temperature, detergent and because this virus is enveloped, of course it's not resistant with ether..

Hope this helps you
Victor

Q: Why are chemists great for solving problems?
A: They have all the solutions.

Thanks to my bio book that had given me such information..oh one more thing..it's a correction for positive-sense RNA.
The meaning of +sense RNA is: viruses with this kind of RNA can use their RNA as mRNA to translate some specific proteins they need...
